Box 25095, Baton Rouge, LA NATIONAL CHAMPIONS LSU Heads Back To Its Home Away From Home To Face Tulane In Superdome Second-ranked LSU will play in its home away from home on Saturday, traveling 75 miles east to face Tulane in the Louisiana Superdome. Kickoff for the contest is scheduled for 11 a.m. and will be televised to a national audience by ESPN2. Saturday's contest will mark the first between the two teams in the Louisiana Superdome since a LSU win during the 1994 season. The teams renewed their rivalry a year ago with the Tigers posting a 49-7 victory in Tiger Stadium in what was the first of a 10-game series. The series calls for the teams to alternate home-and-home games through the 2015 season. LSU brings a 4-0 overall mark into the contest following last week's win over 12th-ranked South Carolina. The Green Wave (1-2) picked up their first win of the season last week, beating Southeastern Louisiana, 35-27, in the Dome. The game will mark the fourth time this decade that the Tigers will play a game in the Superdome with the three other games coming in the Sugar Bowl. LSU last played in the Superdome less than nine months ago, beating Notre Dame, 41-14, in the 2007 Sugar Bowl. LSU also beat Illinois in the 2002 Sugar Bowl and then claimed the 2003 BCS National Championship with a victory over Oklahoma in the 2004 Sugar Bowl. LSU brings an 11-4 all-time mark in games played in the Superdome into the contest, which includes a 3-2 record in Sugar Bowl games. LSU, which has won six straight overall in the Superdome, is 8-2 all-time against Tulane in the dome. LSU brings the nation's No. 1 rated defense into the contest as the Tigers rank first in the nation in scoring defense (5.75 points/game), total defense (161.5 yards/game), rushing defense (26.75 yards/game) and pass efficiency defense (67.69 rating). LSU is also among the top 10 in the nation in sacks (5th at 4.25 per game) and pass defense (No. 7 at yards/game). Offensively, the Tigers have displayed a balanced attack, rushing for yards per game and throwing for yards per contest. Overall, the Tigers have rushed for 12 touchdowns, compared to just two by their opponents. LSU has also passed for nine scores, compared to only one by its opposition. Individually, Jacob Hester leads the Tigers in rushing, going for 294 yards and two scores, while Keiland Williams has rushed for 207 yards and four touchdowns. Starting QB Matt Flynn has connected on 37 of 65 passes for 415 yards and 3 TDs, while his backup Ryan Perrilloux has completed 27 of 34 passes for 403 yards and 6 scores. They have combined for just two interceptions. Defensively, LB Ali Highsmith leads the Tigers with 31 tackles, while DT Glenn Dorsey has 22 tackles, 4.5 tackles for losses and three sacks. FS Craig Steltz ranks second in the nation in interceptions with 4 to his credit. Defense, Special Teams Trickery Leads Tigers Past Gamecocks, Another stout defensive performance to go along with some first half special teams trickery was too much for 12th-ranked South Carolina to overcome as No. 2 LSU posted a win over the Gamecocks. South Carolina actually led early in this contest, scoring the first first half points against LSU this year with a 1-yard TD run by Mike Davis at the 2:46 mark in the first quarter. The Tigers, who hadn't trailed this year until falling behind the Gamecocks in this contest, responded on their next possession, using the speed of Trindon Holliday to go 69 yards on four plays, capped with a 33-yard TD run by Holliday, to tie the score at 7-7. LSU took the lead for good early in the second quarter when Matt Flynn hit Richard Dickson on a 1-yard TD pass to cap a 9-play, 69-yard drive. Following an interception by Danny McCray, LSU drove to the South Carolina 15-yard line where the drive stalled and forced what appeared to be a field goal attempt by the Tigers with just over a minute left in the first half. However, with South Carolina bringing a heavy rush, holder Flynn flipped the ball over his shoulder on the fake field goal attempt, right into the hands of placekicker Colt David, who raced 15 yards for his first career TD and a 21-7 LSU lead at halftime. The Tigers stretched the margin to 28-7 midway through the third quarter on a 9-yard run by Jacob Hester. The Gamecocks added a field goal and a late touchdown to make the margin appear much closer than it actually was. Hester led the Tigers with 88 yards rushing and 1 TD, while Holliday rushed for a career-best 73 yards and a score. Flynn connected on 8 of 19 passes for 70 yards and 1 TD. Defensively, the Tigers limited the Gamecocks to only 17 yards rushing and only 269 yards of total offense. LSU, on the other hand, racked up 290 yards rushing and three scores and added another 70 yards through the air.

3 Les Miles Les Miles first two years with the Tigers have been unmatched in the history of the program. The results are impressive and staggering: 22 wins; 13 SEC victories; eight wins over top 25 teams; five wins over top 10 teams; back-to-back top five final rankings; two bowl victories, including one BCS bowl win; 12 NFL Draft picks and four first-team All-Americans. After leading LSU to an 11-2 mark and a top five national ranking in his first year as LSU's head coach in 2005, many wondered just what Miles would do for an encore. His second year with the Tigers proved to be another year full of milestones and firsts as he guided the Tigers to another 11-2 overall record, culminating with a dismantling of 11th-ranked Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl. The Tigers finished their second year under the direction of Miles ranked No. 3 in the nation, marking the first time since the seasons that LSU was ranked in the top five in the country in back-to-back years. LSU's at-large berth in a BCS bowl was a first in school history and it also represented the third time this decade that the Tigers ended their season in the Sugar Bowl. In 2006, Miles became the first coach in LSU history to lead the Tigers to back-to-back 10-wins seasons and with 22 victories in his first 26 games as the school's head coach, his win total matched Bernie Moore for the most in school history over that span. He also became the first LSU coach since Jerry Stovall in 1982 to beat two top 10-ranked teams on the road in the same season as the Tigers posted a win over No. 8 Tennessee in Knoxville followed by a victory over No. 5 in Little Rock. The Tigers were able to accomplish all of this during the 2006 season despite having to face four top eight opponents on the road, also a first in school history. LSU posted a 2-2 mark in those road games, which included November wins over Tennessee and that propelled the Tigers to a berth in a BCS bowl. LSU opened the 2006 season in grand style, posting identical 45-3 wins over Louisiana-Lafayette and Arizona. After a gut-wrenching 7-3 loss at No. 3, the Tigers reeled off decisive wins over both Tulane (49-7) and Mississippi State (48-17). Following a setback to eventual national champion, the Tigers responded with seven-straight wins to end the season, starting with a 49-0 victory over a Kentucky team who went on to win eight games and beat Clemson in a bowl game. The Tigers capped the 2006 season with its win over an overmatched Notre Dame team in the Sugar Bowl, giving the Tigers their third win in a BCS game since the 2001 season. The three wins for the Tigers in BCS bowl games since the 2000 season is the most of any SEC team during that span. With a 6-2 SEC mark in 2006, Miles ran his record in conference games to 13-3, which trails only Bernie Moore as the best start for an LSU head coach in league games in school history. Moore won 15 of his first 16 conference games from With a makeshift offensive line that featured three first-time starters and a pair of true freshmen running backs having to plug holes in a depleted backfield, the Tigers still managed to lead the SEC in total offense (411 yards per game) and scoring offense (33.7 points per game), while ranking No. 2 in the league in rushing offense (165 yards per game). Defensively, (the Tigers, despite losing three defensive linemen to the NFL Draft from the year before), ranked among the top four in the nation in scoring defense, total defense and pass defense. In all, the Tigers fashioned its 11-2 record against seven teams who went on to play in bowl games as LSU s schedule was ranked as the 12th toughest in the nation according to the NCAA. Even though the Tigers had to go on the road to face four top 10-ranked teams in 2006, year two under Miles seemed somewhat ordinary compared to what the Tigers had to endure during his first year in Baton Rouge. In Miles' inaugural season at LSU he led the Tigers to only the third 11-win season in school history, to a top five national ranking and a berth in the SEC Championship Game despite numerous distractions that covered most of the months of September and October. The Tigers, playing without starting quarterback and future No. 1 overall NFL Draft pick JaMarcus Russell, put an exclamation point on the year with a 40-3 win over No. 9 Miami in the Peach Bowl to finish with an 11-2 overall mark and a No. 5 national ranking. To appreciate just how adverse the conditions that Miles and the Tigers had to overcome in 2005, you have to go back to late August and Hurricane Katrina, the first of two storms to devastate the state of Louisiana during the fall. Days before LSU's originally scheduled season opener against North Texas in Tiger Stadium, Hurricane Katrina blew ashore, packing tremendous winds, and turned the state, in particular New Orleans and southeastern Louisiana, upside down. Massive flooding followed in the wake of the storm as more than 30 LSU players had their families and their homes affected by the hurricane and Miles' first game in Tiger Stadium against North Texas was postponed. With the LSU campus serving as the recovery center for those sick, homeless and displaced due to Hurricane Katrina, football seemed to be the farthest thing from most people's minds. However, Miles was able to successfully manage a delicate situation, one that saw his team and coaching staff volunteer time to those in need, while still attempting to focus on football for at least two hours a day. After a week of trying to minimize the distractions for a football team that had their apartments and dorm rooms filled with displaced family members and friends due to the storm, it appeared that the Tigers would finally get to play a home game, this time against 15th-ranked Arizona State. Still, with many in Louisiana under the distress of Hurricane Katrina, the Tigers were going to have to take to the desert to face a powerful offense in their first game of the season. These were certainly trying times for everyone in the state of Louisiana, but even more so for a football coach who now had his team carrying the banner for a state in need of a diversion. LSU football had become a release for those consumed with the hurricane. LSU even re-stated its team goals, putting playing for the state of Louisiana at the top of the list. The Tigers didn't disappoint as Miles and his LSU team used a 28-point fourth quarter rally to come back to beat Arizona State, 35-31, in Tempe. Now with the Arizona State game behind them, it looked as if things for the LSU football team would gradually get back to normal as the Tigers now had a week off before facing Tennessee in Tiger Stadium on Sept. 24. Then, the unthinkable happened. Another storm, this one named Rita, hit southwest Louisiana, causing severe damage to more homes, leaving thousands without electricity and displacing even more Louisiana natives. The combination of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita forced LSU to again shuffle its schedule. Instead of playing Tennessee on a Saturday night in Tiger Stadium, the Tigers would now be forced to face the Volunteers on a Monday night. An emotionally drained LSU team saw a 21-0 halftime lead evaporate into a overtime loss against the Vols. Miles became the only coach in his first year in the SEC to lead his squad to the league's title game. He also became the first coach in LSU history to be, and in the same season. Following a loss to Georgia in the league's title game, Miles and the Tigers re-grouped, this time to beat No. 9 Miami, 40-3, in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. The win gave the Tigers 11 victories for the year, making Miles the winningest first-year coach in school history. Miles, the 2002 Big 12 Conference Coach of the Year and former assistant with Michigan, Colorado and the Dallas Cowboys who built Oklahoma State into a force in the Big 12, became LSU's 32nd head football coach on Jan. 3, During his two years with the Tigers, Miles has put together a 22-4 overall mark, while leading LSU to a 13-3 conference record. LSU has also had 12 players selected in the NFL Draft over the past two years, including a school-record four in the first round in 2007, which included the No. 1 overall pick in Russell. In addition, LSU has had four players earn first-team All-America status under Miles. The Les Miles Record HEAD COACH THIRD YEAR Year School Overall Record Conf.

The game will also mark the second time this calendar year that LSU will play a game in the Superdome as the Tigers posted a win over Notre Dame on January 3 of this year in the 2007 Sugar Bowl. LSU brings a 4-0 overall mark into the contest following last week's victory over South Carolina in Tiger Stadium. Tulane picked up its first win of the year last week, beating Southeastern Louisiana, 35-27, in New Orleans. Tigers To Wear Special Uniforms Against Tulane; LSU To Wear White Helmets The LSU Tigers will wear special uniforms for its game against Tulane on Saturday as part of an effort to assist the Hurricane Katrina recovery efforts in New Orleans. The uniforms will feature purple jerseys with a special emblem emblazoned on the shoulders, with white helmets and white pants. Nike has introduced a set of limited edition jerseys and other apparel with part of the proceeds from sales earmarked for assisting the youth of New Orleans. Worn by both teams, the uniforms will feature a special pelican emblem designed by Nike. The Pelican emblem is a tribute to the state bird and stylistically resembles the Phoenix, a symbol of the City's rebirth. The emblem will be one of several new additions to Nike's LSU and Tulane products, which will be on sale at the game and in select retail locations throughout the US. Proceeds from the sale of this product will go towards Nike's Let Me Play New Orleans fund to help rebuild New Orleans through Sport. It's the first time since the 1997 Independence Bowl (and only the second time in recent history) that LSU will wear white helmets in a game. In The Polls LSU remained No. 2 in both the USA Today Coaches poll and the Associated Press Top 25 this week following its win over South Carolina. The Tigers also debuted at No. 2 in the Harris Interactive Poll on Sunday as it was released for the first time this year. LSU has now been ranked 72 consecutive weeks in the USA Today Coaches Poll and for 71 straight weeks in AP poll. The last time LSU failed to make the top 25 in either poll came following the Tigers loss to Texas in the 2003 Cotton Bowl to conclude the 2002 season. Tigers Stretch Overall Winning Streak To 11 Straight LSU ran its overall winning streak to 11 straight games with its win over South Carolina. LSU won its final seven games a year ago, which included victories over No. 5, No. 8 Tennessee and No. 11 Notre Dame. LSU hasn't lost a game since a setback to on Oct. 7 in Gainesville. The 11-game winning streak ties with as the nation's second-longest current streak. Wisconsin has won 13 straight for the longest current streak. The 11-game streak is also the longest for LSU since winning 11 straight games during the seasons. The school-record for consecutive wins is 19, which was set during The following is a look at the longest winning streaks in school history: Consecutive Wins Started Ended 19 Nov. 30, 1957 vs. Tulane, 25-6 Nov. 7, 1959 vs. Tennessee, Nov. 30, 1907 vs. Baylor, 48-0 Oct. 30, 1909 vs. Sewanee, Nov. 13, 1971 vs. Miss.

Carolina, 33-7 Sept. 18, 2004 vs., 10-9 LSU Defense Best In Nation Thru 4 Games - Tigers Lead Nation In 4 Categories There is some debate in college football as to whom the best team may be, but there is no debating which team has the best defense, at least through the first four weeks of the season, and that's LSU. The Tigers go into the Tulane game leading the nation in four statistical categories - scoring defense (5.75 points per game), total defense (161.5 yards per game), rushing defense (26.75 yards per game) and pass efficiency defense (67.69 rating). LSU is also No. 5 in sacks (4.25 per game) and No. 7 in pass defense ( per game). LSU leads the SEC in a total of six defensive categories. LSU Defense Stingy Against The Run In addition to not allowing many points this year, the Tigers have also become stingy when it comes to rushing yards as the Tigers have allowed only 107 yards rushing on 118 attempts this year. That's an average of 0.9 yards per carry. The 107 yards rushing through the first four games of the season is the fewest allowed by an LSU defense since the 1969 Tigers held their first four opponents to a combined 84 yards rushing. The following is a look at LSU's game-by-game rushing defense totals through four games as compared to the 1969 team through its first four games: Game Rushing Yards Game Rushing Yards Miss. State 10 Texas A&M 37 Va. Tech 71 Rice 37 Mid. Tennessee 9 Baylor 20 So. Carolina 17 Miami (Fla.) -10 TOTALS 107 yards TOTALS 84 yards Dorsey Named SEC Defensive Lineman Of The Week LSU DT Glenn Dorsey picked up what is sure to be the first of many weekly awards on Monday as he was named the SEC Defensive Lineman of the Week for his efforts in the victory over South Carolina. Dorsey was credited with 8 tackles, 7 of which were solo, to go with a sack for a 7-yard loss and a PBU. Dorsey led a Tiger defense that held South Carolina to 17 yards rushing in the contest. For the year, Dorsey ranks second on the squad with 22 tackles, and he's first in tackles for losses with 4.5 and tied for first in sacks with three. Tigers Eye 5-0 Start LSU goes after its first 5-0 start since the 2003 season on Saturday against Tulane. LSU won its first five games in 2003 before dropping a 19-7 decision to. LSU went on to win the 2003 BCS national title that year.

5 Tigers To Appear On ESPN2 For First Time This Year LSU will make its fourth national television appearance on Saturday when they face Tulane on ESPN2. LSU has played twice on ESPN this year (at Mississippi State and vs. Va. Tech) and last week they made their first appearance on CBS. LSU is 13-4 all-time on ESPN2, which includes a 4-1 mark under Les Miles. LSU has won four straight games televised by ESPN2, including wins over Fresno State and Arizona last year. Rise And Shine The 11 a.m. kickoff on Saturday will mark the earliest start for an LSU football game since the Tigers faced Texas in the 2003 Cotton Bowl in Dallas. That year, the Tigers and Longhorns ushered in the New Year with a 10 a.m. kickoff from the Cotton Bowl. LSU led 17-7 in that game before the Longhorns came back to post a victory over the Tigers. Last year, the Tigers had an 11:30 a.m. start in a win over Mississippi State. It's the only time that LSU has had a kickoff before noon under Les Miles. In case you're wondering, LSU has won two straight and three of its last four games that have started before noon. LSU s 983 Rushing Yards In First Four Games Most Since 1997 LSU s 983 net rushing yards this year is the most by a Tiger squad since the 1997 team had 1,203 yards rushing in its first four games. That year, the Tigers, behind running backs Kevin Faulk, Rondell Mealey and Cecil Collins, opened the year with 192 yards and 5 TDs vs. Texas-El Paso; 271 yards and 2 TDs vs. Mississippi State; 377 yards and 3 scores vs. and 363 yards and 3 TDs against Akron. Observations And Did You Knows About This Year's LSU Football Team LSU has allowed only four trips into the redzone this year (1 by Va. Tech, 3 by South Carolina) LSU is 21-of-21 in redzone opportunities this year, while the opposition is just 4-for-4 in those chances In 51 possessions by its opponents, LSU has held the opposition to less than 10 total yards in 32 of those 51 possessions... LSU opponents have also gone 3-and-out in 23 of its 51 possessions... LSU ranks No. 1 in the nation in four defensive categories - scoring (5.75 ppg), total yards (161.5 ypg), rushing yards (26.75 ypg) and pass efficiency (67.69 rating). Miles vs. Toledo LSU coach Les Miles brings an 0-1 mark against Tulane coach Bob Toledo into Saturday's game. Miles and Oklahoma State dropped a decision to then-no. 23 ranked UCLA on Sept. 14, 2002 in Stillwater. Miles came back to beat UCLA by a count two years later in Los Angeles, however, Toledo was no longer head coach of that Bruins team. Harris Interactive Rk. Team Rec. Points 1.

State in LSU vs. Louisiana Schools The Tigers bring a mark all-time against teams from Louisiana into the Tulane contest. The Tigers have won 19 straight games against in-state opponents, including a 49-7 win over Tulane last year. LSU's last loss to an in-state foe came in 1982 when Tulane posted a win over LSU in Tiger Stadium. A Quick Look At LSU's Current Streaks Here's a quick look at LSU's current winning streaks. For more on these streaks see additional game notes listed below: Streak Number Last Loss Consecutive Non-Conference Home Wins 20 UAB (2002) Consecutive Home Wins 16 Tennessee (2005) Consecutive Non-Conference Wins 11 Iowa (2005 Capital One Bowl) Consecutive Overall Wins 11 (2006) Consecutive SEC Home Wins 8 Tennessee (2005) Consecutive SEC Wins 7 (2006) Consecutive Wins Over Top 25 Teams 5 (2006) Consecutive Road Wins 3 (2006) LSU's Won 11 Straight Non-Conference Games Dating back to the end of the 2004 season, LSU has won 11 straight games against non-conference teams. All 11 wins have come under current head coach Les Miles, who has an 11-0 mark in non-conference games at LSU. LSU's last nonconference loss came to Iowa by a count in the 2005 Capital One Bowl (which capped the 2004 season). The last time LSU lost to a non-sec foe on an opponents home turf came in 2002 when Virginia Tech beat the Tigers, 26-8, to open the season. Tigers Head Back To Its Home Away From Home - The Louisiana Superdome LSU will travel to its home away from home on Saturday, heading 75 miles east to face Tulane in the Louisiana Superdome. LSU is 11-4 all-time in games played in the Superdome, which includes a 3-2 mark in Sugar Bowl games and an 8-2 record against Tulane. This decade, LSU is 3-0 in the Superdome, with all of those wins coming in the Sugar Bowl. LSU beat Illinois, in the 2002 Sugar Bowl, and then followed that with a win over Oklahoma in the 2004 Sugar Bowl, a win that gave the Tigers the 2003 BCS National Title. LSU last played in the Superdome less than 10 months ago, beating Notre Dame, 41-14, on Jan. 3 in the 2007 Sugar Bowl. LSU has won six straight games in the Superdome dating back to a loss to Nebraska on Jan. 1, 1987 in the Sugar Bowl. LSU's Won 30 Straight Against Unranked Opponents The Tigers bring a 30-game winning streak against unranked teams into the Tulane contest. LSU hasn't lost a game to an unranked team since 2003 when the No. 6 Tigers fell to unranked, 19-7, in Tiger Stadium.

For the year, Dickson has caught 6 passes for 59 yards and 1 touchdown for the Tigers. His 6 receptions rank fourth on the squad and he s one of six players to have caught a TD pass for LSU. David Scores TD, Then Kicks PAT - A First For LSU Since 1965 The last time an LSU player scored a touchdown and then kicked the ensuing PAT came back on Nov. 20, 1965 when Doug Moreau (who now handles the color analyst duties for the Tiger broadcast team) did it against Tulane. In the 62-0 win over the Green Wave, Moreau scored on a 9-yard TD pass from Pat Screen with 30 seconds left in the first quarter and then followed with one of his six extra points that day. Now, 42 years later, LSU PK Colt David did it again for the Tigers, scoring on a 15-yard run on the Tigers' fake field goal just before halftime. It was the first touchdown of David's career. First Quarter Dominance Continues Into 2007 One big reason for LSU's success last year was its ability to take control of the contest early. Last year, the Tigers outscored their opponents 136 to 27 in the first quarter and 240 to 87 in the first half. LSU didn't allow a single point in the first quarter of a game last year until the sixth contest of the year when scored with 11 seconds remaining in the opening frame. In all, LSU held nine of its 12 opponents without a point in the first quarter a year ago. In three games this year, the Tigers have held both opponents without points in the first half. This year, LSU has outscored its opponents 34-7 in the first quarter and 85-7 in the first half. The Bo Pelini "D" Since taking over as defensive coordinator for the Tigers in 2005, defensive coordinator Bo Pelini has put a unit on the field that rarely allows opponents to reach the 20-point mark. In 30 games with Pelini as its defensive coordinator, LSU has held 25 opponents to fewer than 20 points. In addition, 16 of LSU's 30 opponents (55 percent) failed to score more than 10 points. Last year, LSU limited seven of its 13 opponents to 10 points or less, including holding Kentucky scoreless, Arizona to 3 points, Fresno State to 6 points, and to 7 points. Pelini's defenses have also recorded four shutouts over the past 2- plus seasons, including two this year. LSU Hasn't Been Kind To Non-SEC Foes; Tigers Have Outscored Them 373 to 70 Under Miles LSU coach Les Miles is 11-0 in non-conference games with the Tigers and in those 11 contests, only two teams - Arizona State and Notre Dame - have reached double-figures in points against LSU. Last year, in five non-sec games, the Tigers allowed a total of 33 points in wins over Louisiana-Lafayette (3 points), Arizona (3 points), Tulane (7 points), Fresno State (6 points) and Notre Dame (14 points). Dating back to the 2005 season, LSU held Miami to 3 points in the Peach Bowl, shutout Appalachian State on Nov. 5 and then limited North Texas to only 3 points on Oct. 29. Arizona State's 31 points against LSU in the Miles era opener stands at the most points scored by a non-conference team against Miles and the Tigers. In its 11 non-sec games under Miles, the Tigers have outscored those opponents by a combined margin of 373 to 70. LSU's Been Dominating In First Quarters Under Miles In Tiger Stadium LSU continued what has become a dominating first quarter trend last week as the Tigers allowed just 7 first quarter (and first half) points to South Carolina. In the 17 home games the Tigers have played under Les Miles, only two teams (Alabama in 2006, South Carolina in 2007) have scored points on LSU in the first quarter. In all, LSU has outscored its opposition in the first quarter of its 17 home games under Miles since the start of the 2005 season. LSU "D" Has Held Opponents Scoreless In 15 Of Last 18 Quarters Despite allowing a season-high 16 points to South Carolina, LSU has still held its opponents without points in 15 of the last 18 quarters in which they have played. South Carolina is the only team this year to score on the Tigers in the first half when they reached the endzone late in the first quarter last week. Prior to that South Carolina score, Notre Dame was the last team to score points on the Tigers in the first half of a contest and that came in last year's Sugar Bowl. LSU's Defense Has Only Allowed 4 Redzone Opportunities This Year In four games and 16 quarters of football this year, LSU's defense has allowed only two teams (Va. Tech and South Carolina) to penetrate into the redzone. The Hokies were 1-of-1 in their redzone opportunities against the Tigers, while South Carolina was 3-of-3 on its chances. A quick look at the SEC stats show that remarkably the Tigers rank last in the league in red zone defense (it's based on percentage). However, taking a further look to explore those numbers shows that the next closest team to LSU in terms of allowing redzone penetration is Vanderbilt with 10. LSU Extends Home Field Winning Streak To 16 Straight LSU extended its winning streak in Tiger Stadium to 16 straight with its win over South Carolina. The 16-game home winning streak ranks as the nation's fourth-longest current streak, along with Ohio State. Southern Cal is riding a streak of 35 straight home victories to rank first. In addition to its 16-game winning streak at home, LSU has also won 26 of its last 27 games in Tiger Stadium. LSU's last loss at home came against Tennessee on Sept. 26, 2005, a Monday night. LSU hasn't lost a Saturday game in Tiger Stadium since a 19-7 setback to on Oct. 11, To take it a step further, LSU hasn't dropped a Saturday night game at home since a 31-0 defeat to Alabama on Nov. 16, 2002, a streak that stretches 23 consecutive Saturday night games. The 16 straight wins in Tiger Stadium is the longest streak for LSU since setting the school record with 17 consecutive wins from Miles Now 26-4 At LSU; Best Start For A Coach In LSU History With a 4-0 mark this year, LSU coach Les Miles ran his record with the Tigers to 26-4 overall. The 26 wins in his first 30 games is the most of any coach in school history during that span. Bernie Moore ranks second with 25 wins during his first 30 games.

7 Miles Is 15-3 In SEC Games LSU coach Les Miles ran his record in SEC games to 15-3 with the win over South Carolina. Miles was 7-1 in 2005 in conference games followed by a 6-2 record a year ago. Miles is 7-2 in SEC road games and 8-1 in league games played in Tiger Stadium. Miles Is 5-3 Against Top 10 Teams As LSU's Coach; He's 10-4 In Top 25 Games With LSU's win over 12th-ranked South Carolina, Les Miles ran his record against teams ranked in the top 25 to 10-4 during his two-plus years with the Tigers. Miles is 5-3 against top 10 teams at LSU, which includes a 48-7 win over then- No. 9 Virginia Tech this year. Dating back to last season, LSU has won five straight games against top 25 teams. Not Bad For A Non-Starter, McCray Ranks Second In SEC In Sacks LSU DB Danny McCray goes in to the Tulane game ranking No. 2 in the SEC, along with DT Glenn Dorsey, in sacks with 3 to his credit this season. Not bad for a player who sees most of his action in LSU's sub-packages. McCray had another outstanding game for the Tigers against South Carolina, registering a career-best 11 tackles to go with an interception and a PBU. For the year, McCray ranks second on the squad with 25 tackles, along with 3.0 sacks, 2 interceptions, 2 fumble recoveries and 2 PBUs. Perrilloux Shines In First Start LSU QB Ryan Perrilloux stepped in for an injured Matt Flynn and directed the Tigers to a 44-0 victory over Middle Tennessee. The start was the first of Perrilloux's career. For the game, he connected on 20-of-25 passes for 298 yards and 3 scores. The following is a look at how Perrilloux's numbers stack up compared to other first-time starts for LSU quarterbacks in recent history: Year Quarterback Opponent Results Stats 2007 Ryan Perrilloux M.

Cole, L. Levingston, Q. Johnson PK Colt David PK Colt David/HOLD Matt Flynn Holliday The Speedster Makes Most Of His Touches; He Averages 8.5 Yards Per Touch LSU RB/RS Trindon Holliday doesn't get many touches during a game, but he sure makes them count when he does get his hands on the ball. Against South Carolina, Holliday rushed for 73 yards on six carries, including a 33-yard TD run in the first quarter. For the game, Holliday totaled 93 all-purpose yards on a total of seven touches for an average of 13.3 yards every time he touched the ball against the Gamecocks. For the season, Holliday has a total of 204 all-purpose yards on 24 touches for an average of 8.5 yards every time he gets his hands on the ball. Holliday has rushed for 128 yards on 19 attempts; he's caught one pass for three yards; and he's returned four kickoffs for 73 yards. Steltz Ranks No. 2 In Nation In Interceptions LSU senior safety Craig Steltz, despite not picking off a pass in the last two games, still ranks No. 2 in the nation in interceptions with four to his credit this year. Steltz opened the year by tying an LSU record with three interceptions against Mississippi State. He followed that a week later with an interception against Virginia Tech. For his career, Steltz has nine interceptions, which he has returned for 244 yards (or an average of 27.1 yards per interception). Double Trouble At Quarterback Through 4 games, LSU QBs Matt Flynn and Ryan Perrilloux have both shown their ability to lead the Tigers. Flynn, who is 4-0 as LSU's starting quarterback, started the first two games before giving way to Perrilloux because of an injury in week 3. In 3 games, Flynn has been responsible for 4 TDs (3 passing, 1 rushing), while Perrilloux has accounted for 7 TDs (6 passing, 1 rushing). In three games, Flynn has connected on 37 of 65 passes for 415 yards, 3 TDs and just one interception. Flynn has also rushed for 60 yards and a score for the Tigers. Perrilloux has gone 27 of 34 for 403 yards, 6 TDs and 1 interception. As a duo, Flynn and Perrilloux have combined to connect on 64 of 100 passes for 818 yards, 8 TDs and 2 interceptions. They have also combined for 189 rushing yards and 2 TDs. Sharing The Wealth On Offense LSU's offense has been sharing the wealth in the first four games of the season. Ten different players have scored at least one touchdown and five have crossed the goal line at least twice. In addition to the scoring balance, the Tigers have had a different receiver lead the team in each of the first four games. Early Doucet's 9 catches for 78 yards led LSU in the win over Mississippi State, Brandon LaFell's 7 receptions for 125 yards led the way in the win over Virginia Tech, Jared Mitchell's six catches for 82 yards led the Tigers in the win over Middle Tennessee and TE Richard Dickson had four receptions for 39 yards to lead the squad against South Carolina.

Lineman of the Week Hester Does It All For Tigers LSU senior RB Jacob Hester does it all for the Tigers. In 4 games this year, Hester has played a variety of positions for the Tigers. He's started both games at tailback, but he's also seen action at fullback as well as on LSU's punt, punt return, and PAT/field goal teams. Through four weeks of action, Hester has seen action in a total of 217 plays from scrimmage. The following is a look at Hester's play breakdown for the Tigers through two games: Game Offense Punt Punt Return KO PAT/FG Total Mississippi State Va. Tech Middle Tennessee South Carolina LaFell Enjoys Breakout Game Against Virginia Tech LSU sophomore WR Brandon LaFell had his coming out party against Virginia Tech, setting career highs for receptions (7) and yards (125). LaFell hauled in a 56 yard TD to help set up LSU's second touchdown of the game. For the year, LaFell ranks second on the team with 13 catches for 203 yards and a score. Williams Makes SportsCenter Highlight Reel LSU RB Keiland Williams made ESPN SportsCenter's highlight reel with his 67-yard TD run against Virginia Tech. During the run, Williams leaped over fullback Shawn Jordan, who had fallen to ground, and then raced the remaining 50-plus yards to the endzone for the touchdown. The run was the highlight of Williams' career-night, one that saw him carry seven times for 126 yards and a pair of touchdowns. In 4 games, Williams has rushed for 207 yards and a team-best 4 touchdowns for the Tigers. LSU Running Backs Take Care Of The Football LSU's running back-by-committee approach has been good at more than just rushing yards and TDs. The group has also done a tremendous job of taking care of the football. Of LSU's four running backs - Jacob Hester, Keiland Williams, Charles Scott and Richard Murphy - only Hester has lost a fumble on a rushing attempt. Hester's lost fumble on a rush came against Georgia in what was the first game of his career in Since then, Hester has gone 179 carries from the running back position without a fumble. The following is a look at the number of carries LSU's running backs have toted the football without a fumble: Player Carries w/out a fumble Last fumble lost Jacob Hester 179 Georgia, 2004 (second quarter) Keiland Williams 102 none Charles Scott 57 none Richard Murphy 14 none Taking Note On The Tigers Under Miles (Since 2005) Here are some notable trends for LSU in the 30 games its played under head coach Les Miles The Tigers are 24-0 when rushing for 100 yards or more The Tigers are 20-1 when leading after the first quarter with the only loss during that span coming against Tennessee in 2005 LSU is 23-1 when scoring 20 or more points and 20-1 when scoring 25 or more points The Tigers are 17-3 when holding opponents to fewer than 100 yards rushing. Looking Back At Week 2: Tigers Win Rare Top 10 Non-Conference Matchup In Tiger Stadium The Sept. 8th LSU-Virginia Tech contest marked only the third time in the history of Tiger Stadium that a pair of top 10 teams squared off in a non-conference contest. Prior to last Saturday, the last time it happened came in 1987 when No. 4 LSU and No. 7 Ohio State battled to a tie. Top 10 Non-Conference Matchups In Tiger Stadium History Date Teams Results Sept. 26, 1959 No. 1 LSU vs. No. 9 TCU LSU won, 10-0 Sept. 26, 1987 No. 4 LSU vs. No. 7 Ohio State Tied, Sept. 8, 2007 No. 2 LSU vs. No. 9 Va. Tech LSU won, 48-7 Tiger Defense Picks Off 6 Passes In Opener; Most By LSU Team Since 1975 LSU's six interceptions in the season-opener against Mississippi State was the most by an LSU team since having the same total against Tulane in Senior S Craig Steltz tied a school-record with 3 interceptions against the Bulldogs. Steltz became just the seventh player in school history, and the first since Corey Webster vs. in 2002, to intercept 3 passes in a game. In all, the Tigers forced 7 turnovers in the 45-0 win over Mississippi State. The school record for interceptions in a game is 8, which was set against Villanova in Tigers Open Season In Style With Shutout Over Mississippi State LSU opened the 2007 season with a convincing 45-0 win over Mississippi State in Starkville. The shutout was the first in a season-opener on the road for the Tigers since a 44-0 win at Colorado in It also marked the first time LSU posted a shutout to open SEC play since a 30-0 win over Kentucky in The 45 points was also the most by an LSU team in an SEC road game since the Tigers scored 63 points in a victory over Kentucky in LSU Started 2007 Ranked No. 2 In The Nation LSU opened the 2007 season ranked No. 2 in both the USA Today Coaches Poll and the Associated Press Top 25. The No. 2 ranking is the highest preseason rating for the Tigers since 1959 when LSU was ranked No. 1 by the AP. The No. 2 ranking in the coaches poll is the highest preseason ranking for the Tigers since the inception of that poll in LSU finished the 2006 season ranked No. 3 in both polls following its win over Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl.

9 Doucet Sets Personal Best With 9 Catches Against Mississippi State LSU WR Early Doucet set a career-high with 9 receptions against Mississippi State. Doucet finished the contest by making all but five of LSU's receptions against the Bulldogs. For the game, Doucet tallied 78 yards and 1 score on his nine receptions. Doucet's nine receptions ran his career total to 112, which puts him just 10 catches shy of breaking into LSU's all-time top 10 list for that category. Doucet's third quarter TD moved his career total to 16, which ties with Tony Moss as the eighth-highest total in school history. Dwayne Bowe holds the school record with 26 TD receptions. A year ago Doucet, established himself as one of the best in the SEC, catching 59 balls for 772 yards and eight TDs. Running Back Hester Adds To Receiving Total When it comes to catching the ball out of the backfield, RB/FB Jacob Hester has become one of the best in school history at it. During his LSU career, Hester has 51 receptions from the running back position, a figure that ranks just outside of the top six in LSU history. A year ago, Hester caught 35 passes, which ranked as the third-highest single-season total in school history. Gary James ( ) holds both the LSU career mark (122) and single-season record (50 in 1985) for receptions by a running back. This year, Hester has three catches for 44 yards, including a 28-yarder against Virginia Tech that setup LSU's first touchdown. What's New For LSU in 2007 The Tigers have three new assistant coaches on the staff, including offensive coordinator Gary Crowton, who is considered one of the most innovative minds in football. Other newcomers to the staff include offensive line coach Greg Studrawa and receivers coach D.J. McCarthy. Double-Trouble At Corner LSU cornerbacks Chevis Jackson and Jonathan Zenon are back as returning starters at cornerback for the Tigers in The duo has started opposite each other at the cornerback position for 16 straight games. Last year, Jackson and Zenon combined for 6 interceptions for an LSU defense that ranked No. 1 in the SEC and No. 3 in the nation in pass defense. Dorsey In Line For Special Season Last spring DT Glenn Dorsey opted to return to LSU for his senior season, turning down what would have surely been a first round pick in the NFL Draft. As a result, Dorsey is now in line to get his college degree, while also being put in a position to contend for some of college football's most prestigious awards. ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit has already called Dorsey, "the best player in college football," heading into Dorsey has been listed on every preseason All-America team and has been rated as the best defensive tackle in the nation by several publications. Last year, Dorsey earned First-Team All- America honors after anchoring an LSU defense that ranked among the top five in the nation in yards allowed and scoring. Thru 4 games, Dorsey has 22 tackles, 4.5 TFL, and 3 sacks. The following is a listing of awards that Dorsey has been listed as a preseason candidate for heading into the 2007 season: Award Given To Outland Trophy Nation's top interior lineman Nagurski Trophy Nation's top defensive player Bednarik Trophy Nation's top defensive player Lott Trophy Nation's defensive IMPACT Player of the Year Lombardi Award Nation's top offensive or defensive lineman Walter Camp Player of the Year Nation's top college football player Tigers in the NFL (as of Sept. 23) Name Team Pos Joseph Addai Indianapolis Colts RB Eric Alexander New England Patriots LB Dwayne Bowe Kansas City Chiefs WR Bennie Brazell^ Cincinnati Bengals WR Ryan Clark Pittsburgh Steelers FS Michael Clayton Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Travis Daniels Miami Dolphins CB Craig Davis San Diego Chargers WR Alan Faneca Pittsburgh Steelers C Kevin Faulk New England Patriots RB Randall Gay New England Patriots DB Jarvis Green New England Patriots DE Skyler Green Cincinnati Bengals WR Devery Henderson New Orleans Saints WR Bradie James Dallas Cowboys LB Donnie Jones St. Louis Rams P Eddie Kennison Kansas City Chiefs WR Kevin Mawae Tennessee Titans C Todd McClure Atlanta Falcons C Anthony McFarland* Indianapolis Colts DT Rudy Niswanger Kansas City Chiefs C Melvin Oliver* San Francisco 49ers DE Stephen Peterman Detroit Lions G Chase Pittman^ Cleveland Browns DE Ronnie Prude Baltimore Ravens DB Josh Reed Buffalo Bills WR Mark Roman San Francisco 49ers S Robert Royal Buffalo Bills TE JaMarcus Russell Oakland Raiders QB Marcus Spears Dallas Cowboys DE LaBrandon Toefield Jacksonville Jaguars RB Corey Webster New York Giants CB Andrew Whitworth Cincinnati Bengals T Ben Wilkerson Atlanta Falcons C Kyle Williams Buffalo Bills DT Claude Wroten St. Louis Rams DT * Injured Reserve ^ Practice squad BOLD indicates players who played for Les Miles A New Starter At Free Safety For The Tigers With LaRon Landry taking his game to the NFL, LSU had new starter at the free safety position for the first time since the 2003 season against Mississippi State. Curtis Taylor, a junior, started at free safety against the Bulldogs, snapping a streak of 48 games in which the same player (LaRon Landry) started at that position for the Tigers. In 4 games this year, Taylor has recorded 9 tackles, 1 sack and 1 interception. First Time Starters LSU has had eight players make their first career start this season. First time starters for the Tigers in the season-opener at Mississippi State included RG Lyle Hitt, RT Carnell Stewart, FB Quinn Johnson and FS Curtis Taylor. WR Chris Mitchell made his first start in the home opener against Virginia Tech and QB Ryan Perrilloux and WR Jared Mitchell each started for the first time against Middle Tennessee. WR Demetrius Byrd made his first start as an LSU Tiger against South Carolina. Hitt and Stewart are both converted defensive lineman who were playing on the offensive side of the football for the first time in their career. Johnson is also a converted linebacker who is in his second season on the offensive side of the ball. The following is a look at LSU's first-time starters this year: Game First-Time Starters Miss.

LSU Sack Streak At 23 Straight LSU ran its streak of games with a sack to 23 straight against South Carolina with 3 sacks against the Gamecocks. The last time LSU failed to record a sack came during the 2005 season against North Texas.

10 Three Members of LSU Coaching Staff Have Wins As Division I Head Coaches LSU is one of the few schools in the country that can lay claim to having three coaches on its staff who have picked up wins as a head coach at the Division I level. Head coach Les Miles has combined to win 54 games at LSU and Oklahoma State, offensive coordinator Gary Crowton has a combined 47 victories after stints at and BYU and defensive coordinator Bo Pelini won his only game as the interim head coach at Nebraska during the 2003 season. Oh Brother LSU has two sets of brothers on this years team - defensive end Rahim Alem (formerly Al Jones) and defensive back Chad Jones are brothers as are center Brett Helms and offensive lineman Trey Helms. Alem is a backup defensive end for the Tigers, while Jones serve as either a nickel back or dime back in LSU's subpackages on defense. Brett Helms is LSU's starter at center, while Trey is a walkon true freshman. Double-Duty Tigers Three members of the LSU football team also participate in other sports on campus. Wide receiver Jared Mitchell and defensive back Chad Jones are on the baseball team, while wide out/return specialist Trindon Holliday is on the track team. Here's a look at how these players fared while competing in their "other" sport: Trindon Holliday - sprinter - track and field Established himself as one of the nation's premier sprinters on the track with his outstanding performance in the spring. He earned a pair of All-America honors at the 2007 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in June. He finished as the NCAA runner-up in the 100-meter dash after ripping up the track with a time of seconds in the final while also anchoring the Tigers' fearsome 4x100-meter relay team to a second-place finish with a seasonal best time of In addition, Holliday etched his name in the record books with his performance as he shattered the school record in the 100- meter dash with a seasonal best time of 10.02, eclipsing the mark of set by LSU great and former two-sport standout Xavier Carter in Jared Mitchell - centerfield - baseball Last year as a true freshman, Mitchell started 55 games at centerfield for the Tiger baseball team, batting.258 (54-of-209) with eight doubles, a triple, three homers and 21 RBI. He also became the first freshman since 1998 to lead the team in steals with 18. The stolen bases put him fourth in the SEC in that department and represented the most by an LSU player since Mitchell, the 10th-round selection of the Minnesota Twins in the 2006 Major League Draft, was named SEC Freshman of the Week on Feb. 26. Chad Jones - outfielder - baseball Jones, a left-handed outfielder from Southern Lab High School, was picked in the 13th round by the Houston Astros in the 2007 Major League Draft. He will make his debut for the Tiger baseball team this spring. D-Line U You can now refer to LSU as D-line U as the Tigers have made it a habit of producing All-Americans and NFL Drafts from its defensive line. Since the 2003 season, LSU has had five defensive linemen earn First-Team All-America status and seven members of its defensive line selected in the NFL Draft. Senior defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey earned First-Team All-America recognition in 2006 and then opted to return to LSU for his senior season despite being projected as a first round pick in last spring's NFL Draft DT Chad Lavalais - First-Team All-America; 5th round NFL Draft pick DE Marquise Hill - 2nd round NFL Draft pick 2004 DE Marcus Spears - First Team All-America; 1st round NFL Draft pick 2005 DT Kyle Williams - First Team All-America; 5th round NFL Draft pick DT Claude Wroten - First Team All-America; 3rd round NFL Draft pick DE Melvin Oliver - 6th round NFL Draft pick 2006 DT Glenn Dorsey - First Team All-America DE Chase Pittman - 5th round NFL Draft pick LSU's Been The Best In SEC Since Winning League Title In 2001 Since capturing the SEC title in 2001, the Tigers have won more games than any school in the conference over the past six seasons. Since 2001, the Tigers have recorded 62 wins, one more than Georgia. The following is a look at how teams rank in the SEC in terms of wins since the start of the 2001 season: Team W-L Pct.

Death Valley is the SIXTH LARGEST on-campus stadium in the nation holding 92,400 fans. Running out of the tunnel in pregame was always the best. That is something I will never forget. Once you jump on the field the fans go crazy and that electricity would always pump me up. -- Corey Webster, former LSU CB and current NY Giant "It was the best experience ever. There is nothing like Tiger Stadium. I have played in the NFL. Going on my fourth year, I have played in a lot of stadiums, but nothing compares to being in Death Valley on a Saturday night." -- Michael Clayton, former LSU WB and current Tampa Bay Buccaneer "After playing in the NFL, you now realize how special Tiger Stadium is. It really is the premiere venue across the country on Saturday night. I have traveled the U.S. and heard many people and players ask me and want to have one night to be in Death Valley and one night to experience it. It is the one and only of its kind on a Saturday night." -- Andrew Whitworth, former LSU OT and current Cincinnati Bengal
